Re: What are the perks and benefits with the new 10 level system
I am also a little confused with the perks. I have had the 2 TB bonus storage when i got my chromebook and then the 100 GB storage when I levelled up as a local guide and with no email or warning I just got a banner pop up saying free up space or you can't send email anymore?!?! I don't have time to go through and clear out my email and yes I know its only $2.79 to get 100 GB back but that seems beyond the point. I thought if I kept going with reviews I would keep my 100 GB of bonus storage. I don't see any perks except the NY times email i got a while back...

Recompensa de ser um local guide? Quais prêmios materiais recebemos? Quais os prazos para receber?
E para que não venham respostas de reconhecimento de medalhas virtuais, assisti vários vídeos de outros países, as pessoas ganhando bons prêmios materiais, participar desse programa, tem que haver prêmios para motivar e até gerar novas oportunidades, pois não se trata de um lazer, estamos trabalhando para o Google.

Hello Nadya, please excuse me for being so honest. But we / the LG are asking for more than "bla bla". "constantly evolving" sadly isn't true, it is diminishing! Manpower costs money. That is why - from my experience - any changes suggested to Google maps that cannot be decided by an algorithm and need human approval take between weeks and eternity. Being eligible for perks shouldn't be a game of luck ("maximize your chances") and geographic location (this perk only applies in the US") but transparent and without time limitations. If Google wants qualitative input, it must offer something in return. Stupid virtual badges may attract kids, but no thinking adult.
Re: Quais os benefícios de cada nível, Local Guides.
Dear Nadya,
how relevant is your reply on this topic? If you would take some time to read through the actual replies, you would realize, that most people posting here are quite frustrated about how Google is handling this community and stopped contributing because they have the feeling of beeng treated as little kids.
I'm sure Google can afford losing these people as contributors, but then just stop this pointless programme instead of posting comments with no actual content.
